Mirror 7 September 2005 THE much-loved round Smarties sweets tube is being axed this week after 68 years - and the last 100 will be individually numbered with a certificate signed by Rowntree boss Chris White. A six-sided hexatube will replace the old favourite. A spokesman said: "We needed to take the packaging into a new age." |

 My grandaughter saw the new ones and sneered "That is not a Smarties tube"
She then decided to switch to 'Skittles'
